I just brewed my 4th batch (an amber-ish pale ale)
I used 6 lbs of amber malt extract
1 lb of 60L crystal malt
2 oz kent golding hops
2 oz fuggles hops
1 oz liberty hops
dry ale yeast(safale us-05)
my question is that when I steeped the specialty malt, I steeped it for about 45 min through out the boiling process. Now, when I'm looking online I keep reading that I should steep it before I add the extracts and hops.
Am I going to ruin the batch besides maybe soaking up some extra flavors from the hops or amber extract?
